The Most Heretical Last Boss Queen Who Will Become the Source of Tragedy Will Devote Herself for the Sake of the People
The luxurious princess was relieved.
Star??
Yes, it was Steyl's auditorium that Pride and Tiara blinked loudly.
After meeting Arthur, who had a break, as usual, and watching for a match with Stale. After the partition, the two of them enjoyed a brief laugh with the pride and Tiara who came to visit.
The topics of resting are different from each other. If you are a pride, you can talk about everyday little events, sweets, gardens, and castle visits. Unlike the three royalty, Arthur, who joined the Knights Corps, had many interesting topics. They only talk about confidential matters and no other love, but there are still some worlds they don't know much about.
However, the topic from Arthur was different this time.
Arthur continued by wiping his sweaty forehead and wiping his mouth with the water he brought to moisten his throat.
"I'm not very familiar with it, but when I got home last time, my mother asked me. It's a cycle about once every few years, and it seems to be particularly beautiful this week with a lot of shooting stars.”
Exactly what my mother heard from a customer at a small restaurant she ran.
The stars are beautiful this week, and there are many shooting stars. On a clear night, it was a sight to behold. Arthur's pride and Tiara's eyes sparkled as she remembered the subject.
Some of the royal girls are teachers, but they have not yet been taught about the stars. But there was no way the princesses weren't interested in shooting stars and what everyone admired. I want to see it once and I would definitely like to see it twice if I hadn't seen it before! I think it's romantic.
Nice, I will definitely stay out the window tonight! In response to the powerful sister's reaction, Stale also looked up at the sky above the sun.
I used to look at it quite a bit, but since I was adopted, I haven't been interested in looking at it much more than the stars. When it's bedtime, Pride, Tiara, and I basically leave each room, so there are few opportunities to look at the sky together like during the day.
However, if both Pride and Tiara are so interested, I think I'll watch it from the window this time. I don't know if I can get a good look at the shooting stars, but I think I might be able to pay a little more attention to them than a book once every few years.
When Arthur said to the Pride, “If you want, you can look at it before you go to bed,” he nodded along with the smiling sisters.
"I'm looking forward to tonight. Why don't you prepare a warm drink for stargazing?"
"Great. I'll do the same. It's nice to have a cup of tea while gazing at the stars slowly and relaxingly at the window..."
"It's a warm season, but it gets cold at night." Especially at the window, so please be careful not to catch the wind. ”
Stale agrees with the pride and tiara that inflates expectations from now on.
Three people live in the same castle palace, but if the rooms are different, they must basically stay in their rooms at bedtime. With Stale's special abilities, I could sneak out and gather, but the three of them followed the rules as best I could.
This time it was not gathered in one place, but it was a flow of enjoying stargazing in each room, and the will was communicated without words.
The next day, when I promised to report to each other whether I had seen a shooting star, the four of them moved on to the evening.
"Is it tea after all...? But it's not very good to drink it before going to bed..."
Even though it is not as small as coffee, black tea containing caffeine interferes to some extent with the subsequent sleep.
I want to wake up while I'm watching the stars, but the next day, I'll live and study as a royal family. Even if they stay up late, I want to get a good night's sleep.
Previously, when I asked the maid for tea to stay up late because I was concerned about the continuation of the book, I was told that the tea would make my sleep shallow, but I had already had experiences with Pride, Tiara, and Stale.
Even so, if you decide that it's better than going to bed, you may ask for coffee or tea, but this time it's not just staying up late, it's a romantic stargazing. Unlike the sneaky staircase, which I think is good for tea or coffee, Pride and Tiara's pure hope is to have a good night's sleep in bed while looking at the stars.
Tiara, who immediately tuned the maidenish romance, nodded twice and twisted her head to propose another drink.
"How about some hot milk or something? Your body will warm up, and you'll get a good night's sleep after that."
"Tiara, why don't you fall asleep?" You can stay up late, but don't sleep on the couch. ”
As soon as I thought it was a good idea, my brother cut me off with a quick answer, and Tiara dropped her eyebrows.
Shortly thereafter, she was told in a reprimanding tone not to sleep on the sofa even though she hadn't done it yet, and the small cheek was puffed up like a hamster. “I wouldn't do that,” he said in a solitary voice, but it was also true that she often fell asleep on the sofa in her pride room during the day, not at night. Moreover, many times since I was young, I fell asleep pronely and obsessed with books at night.
Feeling embarrassed and embarrassed, as if my brother was seeing everything, I clung to my arms of pride as if they were sweet.
Thinking that Tiara's reaction and workmanship were cute, she stroked her head with a fluffy wavy blonde hair. "Tiara is already eleven years old," she exclaimed softly, turning her gaze to Arthur.
"Arthur, do you have any ideas? Do you drink anything before you go to bed?"
"I......"
Suddenly they throw a voice at me, and I get stuck in words and turn my back slightly.
At a time when Arthur himself and Pride were interested, I thought I'd watch out for him out of the window tonight. However, unlike the graceful royalty, I didn't think of it until the evening.
When I'm at my parents' house, hot drinks before going to bed are often hot milk, as Tiara says, or cumbersome hot water. But there was no way to say that it was white water to a royal opponent.
Although my mother is originally a small restaurant, she is not interested in such hobbies. Apart from the food, I don't have a repertoire of drinks that only enjoy flavors.
When I went home the other day, I could have asked my mother a few questions, and I could think about them with regret.
Arthur's answers were those of the Knights, but... the first thing that came to mind was alcohol.
If you can't sleep, you can drink wine when you stay up late. If you gather two or more people together, you can drink wine anyway. The Knights have a lot of liquor, so knights who don't like liquor are rarer. Since I joined the Army, several knights have been promoting alcohol, so the next thing that came to mind was alcohol. However, it still stops in front of my throat to propose it here. Hot wine came to mind, but in any case, Tiara, who was only eleven years old, was drunk and fell asleep, and the figure came to mind easily.
I'm sorry. As a result of thinking about it for myself, I tried to say it with an apologetic feeling as I held my eyebrows together... and suddenly I remembered.
”... yes, I was still a recruit”
After the "ah" mouth, Arthur, Pride and Tiara, speaking in a blurry round voice, have their eyes round.
Stale's brows rose slightly expressionlessly as he repositioned the black rim of his glasses. Arthur, the main knight, was also a recruiter recently.
Arthur himself remembered what he had forgotten before, when he scratched his cheek with his fingertips and gazed at it. It was certainly not black tea.
"Since then, there have been knights who talked to me... or talked to my recruits." It was a cold winter day, but after my training, he offered me herbal tea. It was delicious, warm, and I slept well. "
Not just myself, but many of my recruits are experiencing it.
Arthur remembered when he was a recruiter in a joint room in the Knights' Practice Range. As a Recruit, there are plenty of exercises for Recruits alongside auxiliary tasks for the Knights. However, many people pour themselves into voluntary training late at night wanting to get closer to their Knights even if they weren't satisfied. Even though there are many skilled knights who train and practice on their own, the Knight Apprentice Recruits were not insatiable. And Arthur, who was a recruit at the time, was one of them.
And from time to time, that seniors knight would call out to me if I was training myself until late at night. Arthur was also taken care of several times by senior knights who called out from the main knight to the recruits, saying, "You're in a good mood." "Let's take a breath."
You're not mad, you're not feeling well, it's time to cool down and turn it off. It's good to be motivated, but it's important to rest and sleep. Having said that, I had a warm drink I brought with me and returned to my room. I thought it was black tea at first and drank it, but it was an unusual flavor, so I asked and she told me it was herbal tea. I thought it would make me sleep better, and it would be good for my body.
When I told the story to the same recruits in the common room of the recruits, I heard that the senior knight would occasionally say that and offer me a cup of tea brewed by himself to hear the story. Originally, I knew that they would call out to their recruits and listen to them, but at the time, I was surprised that they would bother brewing it until they offered it to me.
“It's unusual for a knight to have herbal tea on his own.”
"Ah, Kara... that senpai's elite." Some aristocrat has a lot of details about sake and tea, and he's got that kind of equipment roughly in his room. "
Nice, nice herbal tea! Side by side with Pride and Tiara, who agree with Arthur's story, Stale decides what to eat tonight.
All the knights would never think of steil as rough, but it was unusual for them to make their own tea. Especially in the Kingdom of Freesia, where popular preferences include black tea, coffee, and sake, herbal tea is one of the hobbies and medicinal properties.
If you have black tea, herbal tea, and tea leaves, you can also brew them with powder and water. You can't drink unless you boil the water in a pot yourself, and you can brew it using a special appliance. Unplugging the bottle and drinking alcohol is not the same as just warming the milk. In addition, you also need to have a good knowledge in order to brew a delicious tea.
Arthur, who explains his name to the Steyls, who are not as familiar with the knight, is well aware of it. I am familiar with such equipment in my own home and small kitchen, but I hear that it is unusual for knights of aristocratic origin to have it in their own rooms in the Knights' Palace. Whether you are a tea lover or an aristocrat, you are not brewing your own tea, but servants such as maids and servants. Few people bother to bring their own equipment and use their time to brew it.
"Is tea a hobby? When asked, the answer was" Probably not. "I don't even know the knight's detailed tastes, but rumors among the recruits that the knight captain could only brew tea at the time of offering. I think Arthur and the other knights are just people who make tea just to listen to their men and recruits.
“Arthur, if you don't mind, could you ask me what kind of herbal tea it is? I'd like to try that tea that Arthur drank, too."
Even the type of tea leaves, if you can ask. Tiara also let out a voice of pride that she wished for with a full smile. "Definitely!!" She stretched her neck forward with her hands in response to the increased fun tonight.
If you really want to drink herbal tea, you should try Arthur's memorable herbal tea, which was delicious. It was only natural for the Pride to think so.
Furthermore, Stale repeatedly asked Arthur to meet again as a guard afterwards, saying, "I have plans to visit after this, so please ask me before that." You can ask Arthur if you need to, but sooner if you know. That way, you can have the waiter prepare the same tea leaf herbal tea even tonight, not this week. In a nutshell, "Herbal Tea" could be brewed immediately on my own, but now Arthur's desire to drink the same thing was stronger than Stale's.
Arthur, who had been asked by the three of them to swallow his mouth in an unexpected development, was a little worried and took on the task. Okay, I'll ask you when I get back. The knight in the Third Squadron, who was different from himself, had to be met somehow first, so he decided to return to the training ground as soon as possible.
Now, if you'll excuse me for today, I'll see you later. I said hello and left the auditorium. When I returned, I first searched for the leader of the 3rd Squad. I felt like I had to give him ten seconds to get back to the training ground at full speed.
I am also secretly thinking about buying the same tea next time.
……
Pride-sama, have a good night's rest.
With all due respect, Pride greeted the maid who put the cup and the steaming pot on the table.
Patan and the door were closed, and he quickly took hold of a steaming cup while overflowing with a thin song in a room that was no longer calm for him. The soft scent pierced the nostrils, and the first scent raised my chest.
Hold it in both hands so it doesn't overflow, and carefully lower your hips to the window while checking your watch. Relieved by the warmth in my hand, my breath leaked.
After speaking at the Steyl auditorium, the pride reunited as a guardsman during the subsequent inspection moved to the continuation of the daytime topic in the carriage. How was it? Did you want to hear it?! Asked, it was a small package that Arthur handed over to his royal sisters while explaining.
After returning to the Knights training range, I asked the senior knight who was fortunate enough to speak immediately, "I want to know," and he gave me the tea leaves happily. Although I blended two kinds of herbal tea in one bite, it seemed like it would be better to buy it after checking if it suited my tongue if it cost money to buy it. As a result, Arthur, who was able to have four pots of tea leaves separated, quickly handed them over to the Pride.
Tonight, the herbal tea passed through the poisonous eyes entrusted to the maids was a pleasant fragrance suitable for the royal nose.
And now, for pride, stargazing, first herbal tea, and one more thing. There is still a little fun left.
"... cheers"
Fufu, smiling alone, Pride murmured as the clock's long hand stopped twelve times.
Slightly pull the cup over the window. There was no one else but myself here, but I knew there was someone else at the end of the murmur.
You're doing your best, and you don't have all the time?
I was the one who proposed it.
I got my first cup of tea for all four of us. Both Steyl and Tiara said they were going to stargaze tonight, and Arthur told me that he would go home tonight and have a drink. Then why don't you and I have a cup of tea together? And Arthur and the others smiled and agreed.
And now, with time to wait and relax, not only myself, but also Steyl, Tiara, and Arthur, are drinking the same tea while looking up at the same sky.
It felt as if the four of us were having a secret tea party at night, warming not only our bodies but also our hearts. The herbal tea Arthur gave me warmed quietly from the inside so that the soft scent could pass through my nostrils and circulate through my whole body.
Arthur said that he had the tea served at the training center rather than indoors, but I think that under the cold sky he would have drunk the extra tea that illuminated the fire from the inside.
With only the taste of herbal tea and the opponent who would share time, the pride filled with happiness looked up through the window. You can see yourself bending your knees and reflecting into the window with a steaming cup, and the starry sky spreads out beyond.
─When I was a kid, I was bored looking out the window.
I remember that happily inflating my chest.
At a much younger age, the night was boring. When my father, who was most excited, left, I could not go anywhere by myself and had no choice but to sleep in my room.
While the child was dissatisfied with the swirling, the only empty feeling that didn't boil down to any emotions even in the beautiful scenery outside the window is still in the chest. I waited for the shooting star alone, but it didn't make me feel this excited.
But now, much more than then, my chest is bouncing like a child, and I don't feel lonely at all.
The feeling of being connected under the starry sky is warm while feeling the tickle. If I talk to you, I feel like I'm going to come back from there. If they see a shooting star, they'll see the same shooting stars, including Tiara, Steil, and Arthur. The fun is endless.
In the cloudless sky, the stars shining like jewels are all dazzling and beautiful. Just gently take a deep breath of herbal tea overflowing with steam.
Looking back at each and every one of us looking up through the window, I find it hard to see this time is over and I can't see them until tomorrow.
"...... luxurious."
You laugh when you think about it and say it yourself.
While being wrapped up in a sense of happiness, Pride once again opened his mouth to the cup.
As long as this happiness lasted, I felt like I could wait for the shooting stars until dawn.
